Ok, another problem, I have this new printer, I have installed and re-installed this printer several times with the same issue..
I will be printing and all of a sudden it stops printing, I have to shut down to get it to print again, I checked the drivers which say I have the correct one installed for this printer!! Any suggestions?? 
I have a compaq presario 6000 computer Windows XP …
Strange.
Does this happen with all size documents you send to the printer?
Try printing the word ‘test’ in Notepad. Any success?
The issue could be due to the printer spooling size but I don’t want to jump to conclusions yet 
yes, any size it does ..
Im wondering if it’s the printer…
I would call the support and ask for a RMA and send it back. You have spent enough time on it. It sould work fine out of the box.
yeah, i would guess the printer is faulty, i can’t tell you how many printer we go through at work, that just don’t work or act really funny rate out of the box.
